Hi guys,

Typical Laws of Murphy: I put my car up for sale, then something goes wrong! The trim piece around the lock barrel on the exterior drivers door handle decided to end its association with the rest of the door handle and fall off. It was subsequently run over (doh! Damn you, Murphy!!), so I am in need of a replacement.

I've done the ringaround to as many places as I could think of, but not many seem to stock V35 bits and pieces. Nissan can source me one, but at 4 weeks and extortionate cost, I'm a bit hesitant to use them...

I was hoping someone might have seen a V35 being wrecked, or possibly know of someone who is parting one out??

does anyone know if they're the same as another model; Maxima, for instance?

Any help is appreciated!

Cheers,

Micah

yeh they are a rip...... interior handles for 80 bux..... and 150 for the kickplates....... but hey if this is your last resort then why not. passenger side is a wreck so all the best on the driver side.

micah,

show me what you mean - I may be able to get it ex japan (which car is this? chassis number pls.)

It's the silver car, and this is the culprit: the clip on the back is broken, but I'm not sure whether that was the cause, or whether it broke when the piece was run over....

chassis number is cpv35505067

Cheers.

I can get that bit. not sure if it comes painted though.

I'll check in the morn as its a bit late now.

Hi Chris, any more info?? Need to make a decision on this, as the car is for sale...

Cheers,

Micah

    • If you take the top half of the intake off you can unbolt the flap off the shaft and leave the shaft in there blocking the hole. Then you can remove the little vacuum canister off from under the manifold and get a spare vacuum line to run to the ECU. I can take some photos of it later. Probably best to get the vacuum source to the ECU sorted first though. Mine all worked mint with the base map from the GTT an I've pretty much let the closed loop sort the fueling and took 1 degree out of the whole timing map.
    • This IS something you also have to configure in Haltech (or at least I did in the past when going from onboard-to-ECU map sensor and an external MAP sensor in haltech land).
    • I'm hoping it's something as simple as the ECU is looking for an external MAP sensor, but he is trying to use the onboard MAP sensor.
    • You won't need to do that if your happy to learn to tune it yourself. You 100% do not need to do that. It is not part of the learning process. It's not like driving on track and 'finding the limit by stepping over the limit'. You should not ever accidently blow up an engine and you should have setup the ECU's engine protection to save you from yourself while you are learning anyway. Plenty of us have tuned their own cars, myself included. We still come here for advice/guidance/new ideas etc.  What have you been doing so far to learn how to tune?
    • Put the ECU's MAP line in your mouth. Blow as hard as you can. You should be able to see about 10 kPa, maybe 15 kPa positive pressure. Suck on it. You should be able to generate a decent vacuum to about the same level also. Note that this is only ~2 psi either way. If the MAP is reading -5 psi all the time, ignition on, engine running or not, driving around or not, then it is severely f**ked. Also, you SHOULD NOT BE DRIVING IT WITHOUT A LOAD REFERENCE. You will break the engine. Badly.
